Bronze Me

Infused with antioxidant-rich cocoa powder and signature bronzing pigments to create a unique matte bronzer that neutralizes red and evens skin tone

Suggested Price $30 @ www.toofaced.com or Sephora

It smells like chocolate so I just had to do taste test. LOL, It tastes like coco powder 👅

I have recently switched over to this product and I must say it has to be my favorite bronzer (and I'm a makeup artist so I have tried MANY bronzers). What I like best about it is the color. It has no orange in it, so it works great for fair skin tones. I am about an NC30 myself, and with a good hand this is the perfect color for me. Most bronzers turn orange on me, but this is a true tan color; dare I say brown? That sounds bad, but I promise it doesn't look dirty brown. Just like that perfect golden brown that people turn when they actually tan. It can also be built up for darker skin tones. I find this to be the most universally flattering bronzer I've tried. If you are anywhere from NC/NW10-NC/NW35, this will most likely be a great color for you.

Neostrata Skin Resurface Duo Review

SKIN RESURFACING DUO

Ideal for a quick fix for dull skin concentrating on more resistent dry skin areas. This duo will give you quick results with no downtime.

Ideal for:

All skin types
Loss of radiance
All ages

Results:

Exfoliates superficial layers of the skin
Revitalizes complexion, enhancing skin clarity
Reveals radiant, younger-looking skin after just 1 treatment

After I used this product for the first time I could not get over how incredibly amazing my skin felt. I felt as though I'd just had an amazing facial and could not stop touching my skin! It literally felt like baby's Bum ☺️ It's also amazing because whatever cream/moisturizer you put on after the treatment soaks up so much better than it normally would and can enhance the results of other products.

All tho you may find it bit pricey but a little goes a long way and once you try this stuff, you are hooked.

Suggested price $74 @ Shoppers Drug Mart

Try it out 😊

How to apply Lashes

Paint the white band first before you start applying (I just use black gel liner), so you don’t have to paint it after you’re finished and it’s tougher to reach without disturbing your makeup or the lashes.  
Give the glue time to get sticky. I usually wait from 30 seconds to a minute. When it first comes out of the tube, it’s not very sticky.
Use as little of the glue as possible. Seriously! I find that when I use too much, the lashes feel really uncomfortable.

Also, trim the ends

The MAC 33 False Lashes ❤️

Removing False Lashes: Step By Step

Grab a makeup wipe, or a cotton pad soaked with eye makeup remover. Ideally it should be something that can handle real-deal waterproof mascara and liner. I really like Bioderma Sensibio $22 saturated in cotton pad. Removes makeup, tones, smoothes and cleanses. NO rinse required ✔️
Close your eyes, and gently press and hold the makeup wipe or cotton pad against your lashes and false lashes. Let that sit there for a minute or two, maybe three, if you used a lot of glue on the lash band.
The idea is to give the makeup remover time to break down the glue.
After your lashes and falsies have thoroughly soaked up the remover, they should slip right off without any resistance. I usually start pulling them off from the outer corner, since those lashes are usually the longest, and gently lift up the band.
